3.After Location Has Been Selected:

a.Check for obstructions in the area where air conditioner will be installed. See FIG. 4.

b.The roof must be designed to support 65 Kg. when the Caravan is in motion. Normally a 100Kg. static load design will meet this requirement.

It is the responsibility of the installer of this air conditioner system to ensure structural in- tegrity of the Caravan roof. Never create a low spot on the roof where water will collect. Wa- ter standing around the air conditioner may leak into the interior causing damage to the product and the Caravan.

c.Check inside the Caravan for return air kit obstructions (i.e. door openings, room dividers, curtains, ceiling fixtures, etc.). See FIG. 4 & 5.
